1. Does anyone have any leads?

   Balthazar replied to pepehugoboss's topic in Minnesota

   I'm a PCA there now and in school working on my degree. I don't think there is any type of minimum hours because there are some PCA's that are per diem. It seems to me that the majority are part-time and many of the PCA's are students.

2. I applied to NHCC Nursing program with a score 11

   Balthazar replied to Buster11's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I did get accepted to Inver!! I can't wait to start the program this fall. The first time I took the TEAS, I only scored 70% overall. I was super nervous and only used the TEAS study guide book. I took it again two weeks later and scored 81.3% overal...

   Regions Hospital in St. Paul will hire new grads with ADN's, but they prefer to hire from within first. It never hurts to apply though.

4. Composite Scores

   I was accepted into Inver Hills for Fall 2015 with a composite score of 12.13.

5. Entry level questions

   Balthazar replied to Tdoe's topic in Minnesota

   I have CNA training and work at a hospital as a patient care assistant. I did not work in long term care before working in the hospital. As the previous poster stated. Search through different locations that you might want to work at and look for ent...

6. Retain CNA licensure?

   Balthazar replied to virgo7598's topic in Minnesota

   Is keeping your CNA license active required for your program? If not, then I don't see a reason to keep it active unless you are looking to work as a CNA while attending school. If it is required, I don't think there's any place that would hire you o...

8. Inver Hills MANE Fall 2015

   Balthazar replied to Balthazar's topic in Minnesota

   You're right CTN91. They take your overall score and in the event of a tie, they compare your individual TEAS scores starting with the Science section and then the math section.

9. I applied to NHCC Nursing program with a score 11

   Balthazar replied to Buster11's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Is NHCC, North Hennepin? Is that a MANE program too? I'm not applying to NHCC, but to Inver Hills. Just for reference, I have a 12.13 entrance score. Best of luck to you in your program!! Only three more weeks of waiting.

10. Inver Hills MANE Fall 2015

    Balthazar replied to Balthazar's topic in Minnesota

    Jenniferb2005, my thoughts exactly! The TEAS should be scored exactly how we answered and not adjusted. It just seems strange. It would be interesting to see how ATI decides the adjusted scores. Guess what everyone? We made it through another week of...

11. Inver Hills MANE Fall 2015

    Balthazar replied to Balthazar's topic in Minnesota

    Good luck to everyone applying. Jenniferb2005, you are smart to apply to several schools. I'm in the boat with CTN91 and only applied to one school, Inver Hills. I don't fully understand the grading with the TEAS though. The scores are adjusted based...

12. Inver Hills MANE Fall 2015

    Balthazar replied to Balthazar's topic in Minnesota

    Yes, March 15th are when the letters go out, but that's a Sunday, so I'm sure it will be around that time frame. My GPA for the first semester courses is 4.0, so that makes my entrance score 12.13. It feels like a good score, but I don't want to get ...

13. Inver Hills MANE Fall 2015

    Balthazar replied to Balthazar's topic in Minnesota

    I'm not sure how many apply to the program. I want to say it's usually like about 300 or so and I thought they accepted around 50 applicants. Someone correct me if I'm wrong on this guess.

    Balthazar replied to Balthazar's topic in Minnesota

    Anyone applying to one of the MANE programs is definitely welcome on my posts! Just three more weeks until the deadline and nine very long weeks until the letters go out. I'm taking a couple of liberal arts courses this semester to try and keep my mi...
